Assessing The Impact Of Payment Term Changes With Amazon

By Martin Heubel, Amazon Strategy Consultant at Consulterce

Have you been asked for longer payment terms by Amazon?

You’re not alone.

Vendor Managers often request changes like:

  • EOM instead of NET invoicing
  • 120 instead of 60 payment days
  • Higher Quick Pay Discounts

Take the following example:

Your Vendor Manager asks for 90 instead of 60 NET payment terms.

Sounds like a reasonable request?

Well, those extra 30 days will cost you £82k+ in cash flow for each £1m in revenue.

On a £10m account, this reduces your cash flow by over £820k!
